Today is Word Filled Wednesday, the time to refresh and delight ourselves in God's Word!

Being a wife, mother and woman can be tough! The above verse tells us that favor can be deceitful and that beauty is vain (and passing!). The only thing which is lasting is a heart open to the Lord. Through this open door of our heart and His glory, beauty, grace and love will overflow. I recently came across a beautiful prayer that was a great encouragement to me:

Dear Father,You have blessed me with the precious gifts of children and a family. May my life reflect Your love and my children know You and Your unconditional love. Guide my thoughts and actions each day for I am dependent on Your Spirit to guide me with wisdom. Help me be the mother You wish me to be. Amen

Welcome!

Welcome to Joyfull Living, a place to come for a time of encouragement and to find a little bit of joy in the midst of the day. There is something miraculous in the mundane, if we keep our eyes looking for those everyday blessings!
